People like this make me furious. I don't get treated like that because I have always said that I have a carb intolerance. People understand that.

I know this isn't McDonalds but years ago we went to a kfc in Leeds on a boiling hot day (This was long before i was diagnosed with p.c.o.s and diabetes,but i had been diagnosed with SEVERE food allergies and well we just dont like anything spicy),we check stuff religiously and know what I can and cant have.The staff were more preoccupied banging this stupid fan that kept stopping.
I said I MUST have the plain chicken no hot wings or other funny bits normal kfc is fine.
We got home sat down to eat it first bit was fine yummy,second bit I thought mm lips tingling bit odd,prickly feeling sort of rising in chest,hands starred to feel hot.My hubby grabbed the bit of chicken that I had had one mouth full of and tried it himself.
my tongue was puffing up and closing off my breathing I could hear my voice and I sounded far away.
My allergy doctor has said he is reluctant to give out epi pens as people use them before the event and then eat the food they shouldn't hoping they are covered.
Anyway I ended up in hospital after having a severe food allergy reaction and anaphylaxis shock.
All because they didn't listen when they were told no spicy just regular chicken.My father-in-law took them to court!
God I felt ill !
